7. Why do you continue to live in Montreal? Where else have you lived?
I love Montreal, it?s home for me. There is so much culture and cultural diversity it?s fantastic, a real melting pot. I find the people are much more liberal here then most other cities I?ve visited, people here seem a lot more tolerant unless the language debate is brought up. The food here is great, if you?ve never had a Montreal smoked meat sandwich, let me know the next time your in town and I?ll take you out for one.
I lived in a city called Longueuil for a little over a year which is on the South Shore, it?s like the armpit of Montreal. A hairy smelly armpit. I was the only English guy in the whole area, I speak French but they could tell I wasn?t from around there by my Anglophone accent and the fact that I had a job. When people say Montreal is a dirty city full of rude French people who smoke and drink way too much, they are really talking about La Ville de Longueuil! Hey the French term for a mullet is a Coup Longueuil (Longueuil cut), that says it all!
Montreal has a lot of historical buildings and the architecture of all the old churches are really something to see. Oh and I just love the French women!
